On April 8, 2026, the three major indices of the A-share market witnessed a collective surge. The Shanghai Composite Index soared by 2.69%, nearing the significant 4,000-point threshold. Meanwhile, the Shenzhen Component Index surged by 4.79%, and the ChiNext Index skyrocketed by 5.91%. This rally was largely driven by a broad-based upswing in technology stocks, particularly those in the AI computing power and semiconductor sectors. Notable performers included Shannon Xinchuang, Cambridge Technology, and Dongshan Precision, all of which hit their daily price limits. Zhongji Innolight also experienced a remarkable surge, climbing by over 10%. The precious metals sector also strengthened, with Hunan Gold, Sichuan Gold, and Western Gold leading the charge. In contrast, oil and gas stocks faced a correction, with Beiken Energy and Zhongman Petroleum hitting their daily lower limits. Across the board, over 5,100 individual stocks posted gains.
